    It was a debut as popular as Carl Regan's

    This is a very helpful clarification but frankly it does nothing to explain where the buuming fits into all this.

    We're all already discorded. It could be argued that they're coalescing the discord. There's no sowing involved at all. It's already sprouted.

    Where's the malice?

    What shouldn't be ignored in all the claim and counter claim about who set the Facebook group up and why, is that in a matter of a couple of days nearly 1500 reds fans felt strongly enough about the current plight of the club that they signed up to a group dedicated to achieving a change of ownership.

    I must say, its been refreshing over the last few days seeing you contribute on the topic you have real historical knowledge and authority on rather than all that Covid nonsense

    I have asked once why Conway Out is a hoax.

    Perhaps Gally or Loko or Whitey could explain why it is a hoax.

    Then we can rest more content.

    Or Shaggy.

    You're more in the know.

    And you've just started posting "bless" again - like condescending posters do.

    I'll probably be banned again now.

    As with most things, depends on the angle you look at it from.

    I guess the two main points would be creating a Facebook group under a fake persona, and the potential for this investor to be non-existent

    FWIW I think a debate around whether it's a hoax by definition, is semantics. Personally I don't think it's a hoax, in so far as I don't think it's been created by people trying to deliberate trick or deceive Barnsley fans.

    The series of events can't be questioned though. They're there for all to see. So whether people call it a hoax or just a badly thought out plan, is kinda neither here nor there really.

    Sounds plausible but I would suggest the Trust is not solely The Barnsley supporters spokesperson(s), they do not engage with all and I would guess a large percentage have never heard of the Trust ! I only know about it through coming on here even knowing some of the group( do not even know how many people are on there?).

    I'm not waving a flag for anyone here.

    But it has been specifically called a "hoax". It's not semantics we're talking about - we know what hoax means. It's whether the actions of Conway Out fit the definition.

    Read the whole thread. I’d not contributed. Until someone name checked me earlier. Suggesting I was a God. Hence the word ‘bless’ in response.

    Try again.
